It doesn't annoy me.
Not really. You genuinely believe that Goldson, Kamara, Tav etc are Marxists, or that people among our support believe that to be the case and need it explained to them that they aren't?
But what is there to disagree with everyone knows why the players are doing it only wish we did more to stamp it out.
Unfortunately some of the posts on Facebook have been pretty mortifying.
I'll try to be clear.
So, why would they 'self evidentally' need to bring out a statement for something that is obvious to the vast majority of us? What other motivation could their be for this that confuses a certain minority?
It's a start at trying to highlight racism and hopefully create a more healthy dialogue to start to eradicate it from society.
It really does though. You've been going on abut BLM and cultural Marxism and CRT, and the Frankfurt School, and other things that have no bearing on people's actual lives, for a long time. You're in a small minority. You may get 20 Likes per post from your fanbase, but you still do not represent RFC men. This thread, and the locked one before this, should help you realise that. Just support the Champions, and leave cultural fecking marxism out of it. Let them take the knee if that is what they want, applaud till palms ache, cheer, be proud. I was lucky enough to get a ticket, I'll be cheering loudly. cltic will hate it, but any booing will give them at least a crumb of comfort.
The FF Facebook page is full of "fans" who couldn't even point to Ibrox on a map and who have never been to a Rangers game in their lives.
If it doesn't confuse anyone then it doesn't make the need for a statement self-evident. If no one is confused then there is only one conclusion to draw about those who oppose it or need it explained to them.
Did that page not get cleansed before by mark dingwall. I'm sure he had to clear around 18 of them who were up to no good.
Tbf, this poster has mentioned "cultural Marxism" and something called the Frankfurt school, again and again and again. It has been his main reason for railing against the taking of the knee. It is certainly fair to attempt to get to the bottom of this? For most folk, and most Rangers fans, what the players are doing is simply an anti-racist gesture. I can only ask the people who are wholly averse to it WHY they are averse to it. But they cannot give a coherent reply, they simply spit the dummy. Anyways, I'm out, and off to bed. I'm up at 6am tomorrow, then going to the game at 11. Let's just hope there is no booing, We can at least agree on that.
I once watched Jaws and believed sharks would be under my bunk bed. I was 7. Glad I grew out of that.....

Are you being serious?
It’s easy to say you oppose racism, but it’s a very different thing to actually listen and follow the lead of the impacted people (e.g. our Black players) on how to deal with it.
What a bizarre interpretation.
I've never known anything like this in all my years following Rangers. I'm glad I dont go any more to be honest, instead of looking forward to the first game which I always have, I can't see it far enough now.
100% agree with you mate and it’s that straightforward.
I dont think they are Rangers fans. Let's face it some of the stuff coming out here is exactly what dornan has being implying since he crawled out from under his rock.
The only reason they had to make any sort of argument is because fuckwits booed last week.
If they are Rangers fans, then they must be the young team. I know plenty of people my age who don't and never booed mo johnstone and believe me, that was a much bigger deal back in the day that came to nothing.
Agreed mate, but something needs to be done. This on here is more than enough for me, but I'm starting to suspect too many, unfairly on some no doubt, that they're shit stirring.
